Can you suppress individual Tags on a diagram?

[Paolo F Cantoni]

I know you can suppress individual Features (in the appropriate Feature Compartment) on a diagram via the [Ctrl+Shift+Y] Compartment Visibility dialog.

However, is it possible to do the same with the Tags Compartment?  I want to be able to suppress certain (in this case, administrative) tags from being visible in the Tags Compartment.

TIA,
Paolo

No, I don't think you can.

But you could write your own shapescript that shows only the tags you would like to show.

I didn't think so either...  But, if you don't ask, you don't get!

I'll publish a feature request when I get some bandwidth.

As you'll see from my feature request, the list of tags to show/suppress is volatile and diagram dependent.  SO TOO hard for shapescript (and it's really not its job IMV)

Hello Paolo,

The following setting might help you:

Double-click a diagram background - select Features group - enter Tag names to suppress in the 'Tag Names' textbox in the Suppress Compartment Items' panel

HTH,

Thanks, Takeshi, it DOES help.  It answers the first part of my proposed feature request (more later).

If I understand it correctly, it is diagram-wide.  I'd also like an element-specific version.  Can you confirm that's not possible?

Do you happen to know how I can make this applicable to the Diagram definitions in the MDG?  I quickly checked the "usual suspects" but couldn't see where EA hides the info.

PS: @qwerty can you "weave your magic"?

It appears to be in t_diagram.StyleEx,something like 'SUPTAG=a,b,c;'  You should be able to add that to styleex in the diagram profile but I've never tried it (never even knew about the feature!)

Thanks, Neil,

Don't know how I missed it in the first look.

Hehe, another nugget. Thanks, Neil!
